The amount of work and effort it takes makes the end result so worth it. The generations are so important to pass it onto. Keep it alive!! Mahalo for all you do. Much respect!!
Absolutely stunning camerawork and beautiful narration by Lyndsey Haraguchi-Nakayama. Random thought: has the narrator ever considered adding voice over or audiobook work to her resume? Seems like she’d be a perfect fit for these spoken pieces of art. Thanks for sharing such a wonderful story of perseverance and determination over generations. I too loved the planted trees by the grandmother portion of the story. Sorry to see the unkind, and disparaging comments from some who don’t understand all that the Haraguchi and Nakayama families had to endure over many years to rebuild from some incredible setbacks. So glad to see this family farm succeeding despite all the storms from mother nature, and similar storms from people who show their ignorance and fear with torrents of ill conceived words. Thank you, Lyndsey, and all the Haraguchi-Nakayama and Haraguchi families for providing food to your community and the world. 🙏 We need more people like you spreading such wonderful messages and living your life in such positive ways. Again, many thanks for what you are doing.
When I know this island, I really want to visit it with my family. And when I watch this video, I decided to visit here. It really wonderful and beautiful island.
Since the stems are constantly being reused after removing the tops and bottoms they must be very old on a fifth generation farm. Any idea on how old the stems can be?
Great video very intresting, i grow Taro in Thailand i have a quistion would it be possible to get Taro seeds from your Farm or anywhere in Hawaii i be very glad happy If possible Have a wonderful day Regards John
So sad. When the narrator/voiceover said the responsibility is to provide for...and the camera cut to white people...that stung. And according to the comments this depiction is beautifully shot, but painfully not the ideal r
It's a Japanese coloniser this time too. Many Samoans have left to mainland united states, not ideal at all. Blame anti nationalist democrats keeping the borders open and becoming rich off building resorts over sacred Hawaiian ground. Nationalists (not nationalist socialists) believe Hawaii is for Hawaiians, and Hawaiian NATIVES should rule it's own lands and people. But Hawaiians, liberal whites, and Japanese keep voting democrat and destroying Polynesia for the profit of globalist elite. All people deserve their history and homeland. Stop voting to destroy and sell Hawaii for woke points. STOP VOTING DEMOCRAT!
I am a kalo farmer it is not easy work i have asked many kanaka to come farm with me. Many say maybe but no one comes. I am sad everyone likes to eat kalo a few want to meakanu. Its nice to see a family malama the aina we are the stewards of the aina when we go home who will do the work after us. What we plant we share to who ever we can. Aloha keakua
Beautiful, dramatic and compelling. Lyn is an amazing narrator. Nice to see the grandparents in there too.
the camerawork and color grading in this is absolutely beautiful
Whoo it's cool

I was already asking where are the Polynesians? Very sad to see none.
